New Delhi: Mixed Martial Arts is the ultimate fight form. It involves every grappling, martial arts, Jitsu and boxing manoeuvre available on the planet. The fighters are much more ready to handle the brute force and also to unleash it. Despite all the training and endurance the human body only has the limit of intaking any kind of beating.

It is commonly seen in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) that fighters talk like they are invincible and when the step in the Octagon their bodies do the real talking and show how fragile they are.
